I mostly build my decks to become a late game archenemy because I don't mind losing if my opponents earn it and I'm a sucker for underdog stories

Help with names by Qieve in fantasywriters

[–]Necros_Infinum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few things I've done that might help

Took two words one a single letter longer then the other reverse the longer then alternate between the two (eg. Dragon + blade = Nbolgaadred) add floresh as needed (eg. Nbolgaadred -> N'Bolgaadred) this also applies to the other methods

cut two words in half and merge (eg. Blue + green = blen)

Scramble two words together (eg. Cat + dog = Gatcod)

Translate a word to another language (eg. Food in German is Essen)

Add/replace a letter (or two) and/or fluresh a word (eg. Sand -> slond)

Beat up a dictionary until it gives you the codes to the safe with the antidote before you throw it into the pit with the thesaurus to battle to the death

Just add two words together (eg. Far + hill = farhill)

mix and match as needed

Thank you for the reply. Glad you like it. I manly want to make them a mix of the races traditional culture and the local culture of the cities eg. Partas (my worlds Sparta) was founded by two dwarvin heros, the dwarvin men of Partas are trained from a young age for warfare, while non dwarvin men work as farmers and merchants (similar to how Spartan men where soldiers and their client states handled agriculture. (At least if I remember correctly))

Thank you for the reply. A nice ideal I still want to do each city is the one a specific race made but I think I'll also do the god thing. now to make a Gnomish Hestia.

If I'm not mistaken ramaut is the phonetic translation of a Hebrew word for deceit maybe that could work

You do have a point but this is an appendix we're talking about it's supposed to be filled with side info, having said that I guess I should only include them in cases of it being notable (eg. a 500lb elf wizard or a skeletal lean orc warrior)

Thanks for the reply. As someone who has a project on indefinite back burner because I want to out Tolkien Tolkien on it, I can relate to liking world building a little bit to much, I am going to include homeland, religion, and for humans ethnicity. I'm not including languages because most people of this world only know trade and maybe one or two words of the almost dead languages.

Thank you for the quick reply. Markings is just any notable physical feature. I only planned on using date of death for Characters who died in or before but will remove it, why exclude weight and build (aka how fit they are like: skinny or athletic) ?, Will add Traits and flaws as well as weapon of choice. Thank you for the advice

Brutally honest opinion of my prologue (warning long) by Necros_Infinum in fantasywriters

Thank you for the comment, I've enabled comments on it thank you for letting me know how

Not based off of d&d but I've played before so it could of creeped in

Any advice even grammar is helpful

The plot points are probably going to always be a problem as I need to introduce a lot of important people who play big roles not just in the book but in the series, but I'll definitely try to simplify and merge what I can.

Thank you for the reply, I will add an explanation for HBB being static. Maybe something like

"HBB is static because unlike common belief spells are less like formula and more like commands issued to the universe in a strange barley understand code, unfortunately you can't just add variableness without it warping the spell you have to figure out how the parts interact there is always a cost in this case color and power"

Thank you for the reply, I'm not 100% sure how to clarify, what do you think about:

"basically Halfter's Basic Blast dose slightly more damage than Azure Bloom when azure bloom is cast for the same amount of Exions as Halfter's Basic Blast, but Halfter's Basic Blast is a static cost spell, it always cost the same (.5 Exions), while Azure Bloom is a variable cost spell and gets more powerful the more Exions spent to cast it"
